Najee Harris signed by New York Giants

The New York Giants have officially signed free agent RB Najee Harris to a one-year deal, according to Adam Schefter. The team also released WR JuJu Smith-Schuster.

What Harris brings to New York

Harris arrives with open carries available in a Giants backfield looking for production. If he wins the featured role, he becomes one of the more recognizable names at the position on the roster and an immediate add in redraft and dynasty leagues.

What to do on your roster now

Add Harris if he is available on the waiver wire or as a free agent in your league. The volume question is how quickly the Giants integrate him and whether he wins the primary workload. That answer shapes whether this is a league-winning pickup or a bench stash.
